Then I’d be an E.U. citizen? Fuck yeah! Give me two months of vacation!
Think anyone would notice?

My condolences, but Florida immediately voted for Flexit

Sweden here we only get 5 weeks vacay. 480 days parental leave though.
Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 11 months ago
People in America and Japan… “‘only’ 5 weeks?!”
KISSmyOS@lemmy.world 11 months ago
So a Mormon couple could get a paycheck without ever working for 30 years?
Sir_Kevin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 months ago
So, 5 weeks more than we get! That sounds amazing!
skankhunt42@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
Canadian here. I signed a contract with 4weeks of vacation that was changed to ‘unlimited’ this year. So far I’ve taken 5 weeks and have a 6th week approved in November.
I haven’t used any sick days but they’re unlimited. If you take more than 3 in a row, you need a doctors note.
15 weeks parental leave that can be split between partners (father can use none/some/all to look after child while mother goes back to work)
afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 11 months ago
My state now has mandatory parental leave, about a year after me and my wife had decided that we didn’t want more kids. Oh well. At least people in the future will benefit.

We don’t have 2 months vacation…
RojoSanIchiban@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Or hyperbole, apparently :(
Four weeks, two months, whatever, they’re both still infinitely more than Americans are guaranteed, which is zero.
TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 11 months ago
reeeeeee you hate America!!!
RVGamer06@lemmy.world 10 months ago

Nah, the left Sicily where it was.
Draghetta@lemmy.world 11 months ago
So I get rid of the land border with France, but in exchange I get a land border with USA - possibly the only worse country.
Also we lose Sicily and their awesome food and women but we get to keep Sardinia, where the best food is cheese with worms and the best women are one meter tall with moustache.
Bad deal man.
Retrograde@lemmy.world 11 months ago
And remember you get a border with the worst part of the USA, even better!
1rre@discuss.tchncs.de 11 months ago
At least there’s no Corsica anymore (Sardinia but Fr*nch 🤢)
Draghetta@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Fam, corsicans are the only ones who hate French more than us, they are welcome to rejoin Italy whenever they want.
Blastasaurus@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Knowing very little about the two islands, I find the contrasting descriptions hilarious.

We’re not going to go to all that trouble just to keep the damn place. You get the worst of both worlds: French Floridians!

Putting the Vatican below the Bible belt is going to be a disaster
Surdon@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Nah not really, the catholic church loves going below the belt
Railing5132@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Well, the Italian government is going full-on neo-fascist, so it’d probably be a wash, but the food would be so much better!
i_simp_4_tedcruz@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I’m into it, and I can see mexico and Cuba being into it as well.
Syrc@lemmy.world 11 months ago
NO GOD PLEASE NO
Being in the EU is like the one good part of the Italian government, if you take that out I guarantee we’ll somehow manage to be even worse neighbors than Florida
where_am_i@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Likewise. Having trump and orban derail EU together is my worst nightmare. Please, keep an eye on your Florida. Don’t let it sh1t in my backyard.
MasterNerd@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Counterpoint: I want authentic Italian food
Syrc@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Then come to Italy (or rather: go to France or Austria near the border so you can enjoy Italian food without actually dealing with living in Italy)
mechoman444@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I live in Georgia USA I’ve been to FL way too many times Europe doesn’t deserve this.
RGB3x3@lemmy.world 11 months ago
It’s amazing how quickly it turns to shit on I-75 S when you cross the border. You can just feel the nastiness.

Why is Italy a penis?
buzz86us@lemmy.world 11 months ago
That would be awesome… A Mecca for rednecks/Republicans replaced by walkable cities, a nice countryside, vibrant communities, lovely cafes, and awesome pizza. When does the work begin lol
SirHery@lemmy.world 11 months ago
You take Italy and we sink Florida in the Atlantic. Then it’s a deal
Aceticon@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Yeah, but the Balkans have enough problems already and don’t need that shit.
Maybe make it an island?!
The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 11 months ago
Florida is already attaching floaties to their beaches. It’ll be on the way soon!

What happened to Corsica, did it sink?
Honytawk@lemmy.zip 11 months ago
Well you see, Florida would have to adapt to EU rules or lose all the EU funding.
And we don’t tolerate POS like DeSantis.
So give it time, and it will all settle like it is now.
YashaB@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Well thank you, but no thank you.
We got enough conservatives as it is.
